Twitter reacts to Chargers' selection of DT Justin Jones

With the No. 84 pick in the 2018 NFL draft, the Chargers selected former North Carolina State defensive tackle Justin Jones.

The former Wolfpack has the versatility to function best as a do-it-all option for defensive coordinator Gus Bradley’s defense where he can slide between both interior spots. Jones plays with a strong, upper half, and drives through initial contact very well, winning with initial push and working through his offensive lineman to generate disruption.

Los Angeles concluded Day 2 by selecting the third defensive player in the event. The direction they’ve gone thus far shows the team recognized that stopping the run was one of the biggest needs going into the event and Jones was the icing on top to close it out Friday.

Here’s the reaction social media had to the selection of Jones who fills a desperate need for the Bolts.

Jones didn’t seem to be prepared for his name to be called by L.A.

In one of my favorite draft stories ever, third-round pick Justin Jones says he was in the shower when the Chargers called and had to jump out quickly to pick it up.
